Shipbuilding

Louis Dreyfus Armateurs (LDA) has been selected by Airbus to renew its entire fleet of chartered vessels that transport aircraft subassemblies between production facilities in Europe and the United States with three modern, low-emission roll-on / roll-off vessels, supported by wind-assisted propulsion.

Proman Stena Bulk has formally christened its state-of-the-art methanol-fuelled 49,900 DWT tanker Stena Pro Marine.

The vessels are prepared for operation on green methanol. The CSOVs will have an accommodation for 120 persons on board.

Louis Meyer GmbH & Co. KG of Hamburg has placed an order with Damen Shipyards for the one of the first of its next generation ASD Tug 2111 class.

This is the world's first AiP certification for a ship equipped with a large low-speed two-stroke hydrogen-fueled engine as the main propulsion engine.

Damen Shipyards has signed a contract with Belgian shipping company Fast Lines Belgium for the delivery of two Damen Combi Freighter 3850 (CF 3850).

The ARES 65 Fast Crew Transfer Vessels (FCTV) are designed and built to service Turkish Petroleum's requirement for the transfer of offshore personnel and logistic support.

The engines will be delivered by WINGD and the fuel supply system by Wärtsilä Gas Solutions.

Designed to efficiently collect floating plastic and debris from the water's surface, the vessel can hold up 3m³ of waste, reducing marine pollution.

The two engines will be delivered in Q2 2025 and will be among the first of WinGD's ammonia-fuelled engines to enter service.

Compared with traditional fuel-powered ships, the hydrogen-powered vessel is expected to replace 103.16 tons of fuel oil and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 343.67 tons each year.

Meteor IV will be built by MeyerFassmer Spezialschiffbau (MFSB) for the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
